HTTP Install through HTTP Proxy

[Jygar]

Hi Guys

I want to install the latest fedora rawhide image, I am trying to install from HTTP mirror but I am behind a proxy. Currently I put in on linux boot:

# linux askmethod selinux=0 reiserfs export http_proxy=http://myproxy.com:8080

I have also tried:

# linux askmethod selinux=0 reiserfs export "http_proxy=http://myproxy.com:8080"

I am downloding from mirror.ac.uk it keeps compaining that it cannot find hdlist, so I am still guessing that the proxy is an issue.

should the http_proxy environment variblle be export http_proxy=http://myproxy.com:8080. As this is what the variable is set to in bash? I am not certain if the same rules apply for a linux argument such as the one above!

Cheers
